Can you post your ~/.mc/ini file, or at least the following keys?:

clear_before_exec=
fast_reload=
fast_reload_msg_shown=
confirm_execute=
dive_into_subdirs=
vfs_timeout=
vfs_use_targz_memlimit=
ftpfs_directory_timeout=
use_netrc=
ftpfs_retry_seconds=
ftpfs_always_use_proxy=
ftpfs_use_passive_connections=
other_dir=
current_is_left=
